I have an Epson Artisan 1430 printer and will be making prints of my paintings. Has anyone used this paper for that purpose and what results?

I use this paper all the time. I make a calendar each each and use this paper. It isn't thick like card stock, but it thicker than average paper. You would be wise to mount the print before you frame it, the paper can curve due to environmental conditions (humidity etc). But it is nice paper. I also have the same printer, so you are in good shape.

I don' know but I never did get it to work well on my Epsom. I can email it myself and print from my PC faster.

I don't know if you can run this paper through a printer, but I personally would look for rice paper that specified compatibility with printers, like you see on some regular paper. My daughter and I have used this paper for a variety of hand-painted projects, but it is somewhat thin and I'm not sure if I would trust it to go through a printer without issues. IMHO, of course! :-)

I've noticed much better results when printing photographs using Epson photograph paper rather than some other brand, probably because the Epson ink is specifically formulated to be used with that specific paper. Do also remember that a copy is really also a photograph. You may need to scan the piece you want to copy and then manipulate the color registration in a program like Photoshop before printing it to get the best results. If Photoshop is beyond your budget, I've also had excellent results with Corel's PaintShop Pro.

I had the exact same problem with the exact same papers! We had a pack of 20 Kodak photo paper (I believe we received it free in the mail or something.) After the 3 photos we printed on the Epson paper came out stunningly good, we tried the Kodaks, and they were terrible no matter what settings I tried.

We use Epson Artisan 730 with no issues. It took a little time (trial and error) to set up the cloud printing but once it was set up no issues.

I'm really unhappy with this printer which uses an incredible amount of ink. I would not use it for anything other than a large paperweight. Haven't tried printing 13x9 -- good luck with that. The Epson and Canon inkjets I've purchased for my workplace have proved to be excellent value compared to this.

That should work well-- it's the shiny side you want. I have same printer and paper, and my prints are outstanding. Are you printing from Photoshop? I just noticed that I always select Standard by default-- but choosing photo shouldn't make any real difference like you describe.

My epson is an Artisan 810...I'd have to check when I bought this system, but I am still using it w/o having to refill anything yet. It's such a $ saver. I have notched out the area of my printer where the ink tubes run across so that I can shut my scanner lid w/o squishing the ink tubes and avoid any possible problem as a result. The notching was easy to do with just a small knife. Sorry but I don't know about the model you have. But if it looks like the Artisan 810 it will work with that so it's highly likely to work for yours. If your six colors of ink look like the picture I'd guess it would. Hope that helps.

I printed a PDF file on photo paper, the results were excellent. I use the printer for pictures; I am very impressed with the quality. Not knowing what illustration and materials you are looking to print, it is hard to say this would be the printer for you.

Hi: I have an Epson R2000 printer for photographs and the Ultra Premium is my favorite paper. I would buy the 8 1/2 x 11 for an 8 x 10 picture because I would be matting it to go in a frame. If you just want to put a picture in a frame without matting you could use 8 x 10. I personally wouldn't do that. I tend to do a lot of 16 x 20 frames, so then the paper I use is the Ultra 13 x 19. It gives me a great 12 x 16 picture. This is the Ultra size I use the most. I think it's always good to have a little play with the paper so that's why I recommend the 8 1/2 x 11 for the 8 x 10 picture. Hope that helps.

Yes The Epson Artisan printers print photo and regular paper and have a tray available for printing on cd/dvd disks as well as a tray for cards. BE WARNED!!! if your are getting the Artisan 50, it does not recognize the card tray. In order to use the card tray you have to install the driver for the Artisan R280 printer. Tell the system to use that one, then it works fine.

I don't know what 140 watercolor paper is but I have found that the Epson R3000 will load and print on almost anything. You just need to know the icc "profile" for the paper and load it in a manner appropriate for that paper.

Yes, i have an epson 1430 and it works great. I use the glossy paper setting on epson vivid for a nice brighter color

Although I have never tried this paper on any other printer than my Canon Pro 100 it should be fine on an Epson printer.

I use this paper with an HP printer...the old HP Photosmart D7460 that I've had for years. It works beautifully and the colors are outstanding. I hardly use photopaper anymore since I discovered this stuff. However, I prefer the Epson double-sided inkjet paper. I like the Ultra Premium, but it's sometimes difficult to tell which side to print on. With the double-sided paper, it doesn't matter and you can print on both sides. I do that when I'm doing die cutting that requires folding cut pieces of a die...then the "back" color contrasts nicely with the front color.
